Update Re my 17 year old

[albaqwerty]

For those of you who were kind enough to ask for an update (and for those who have missed the saga)

He arrives home today about 10.30, stays for a while , has lunch, goes out with some pals and comes back for dinner. At time of posting, he is still here with his bruv and playing computer games.

He's been offered a flat about 10 mins away from his work (which is great) He is going to see it tomorrow (weird day to view a flat but hey-ho)

Mentioned to my OH that his cousin is taking him, son is staying at her mother's place. I said it's a shame when someone sticks their ned into another family isn't it. He said yep, shook his head and sealed up.

I could go on......

alba, good news about OH results, it would seem son is staying around yours more ? just be patient. he is safe, and well and visiting... OH, not for discussing ,,,,, men eh !!!!!!!!

flipping typical anne :D Head in sand syndrome (However it has caused a rift between his sister and himself)

Latest update is the block of 'flats' is full of not-so-nice people, a friend of my other son was there for about a week and had his stuff nicked after someone broke in.

Having read micmak's post, forget my inane ramblings about my son. I know each person has some type of problem but perspective is perspective.

alba, i still think he will be back home, did he say why he was moving out originally ? if thats private, dont worry about answering,

Try not to worry too much alba, although I know it is difficult. Leave the door open so that he can come back if he wants to. He may be too proud to give in. I see he has got a job - lucky him. When my son left home - as soon as he was 18 - he lived in a real grot-hole but what can you do, they need to have independance and you have to let them go sooner or later. It is very difficult. At least you can tell us, if no-one else will listen.
